In 2021, our family ( 2 adults+ 1 child 6 year old) averaged about $850 per month ( groceries only). Last few months it's about $1000 a month. I'm trying to buy on sale good quality foods ( organic, grass fed type), mainly shopping in Costco, Whole Foods, Safeway. We don't buy ready to cook meals, we don't do any take outs. Rarely going to any restaurants.
